Why We Love This

Wishbone, anchor, button, heart, and horseshoe, all sterling silver cake charms of good fortune, make up this set of circa 1875 heirlooms. Cake charms were tied on ribbons and added to the inside of cakes and pulled out by each bridesmaid at a wedding to tell the future of each. The charms range in size from .5"W to .75"W.
